In this episode, we’re joined by David Miller, one of the most respected visual storytellers in the sport. A passionate runner turned award-winning photographer, David’s images from races like UTMB and the Barkley Marathons have become iconic — including the now-legendary shot of Jasmin Paris slumped under the yellow gate.

We chat about:

• David’s experience at Barkley and UTMB

• What makes a powerful ultra running photo

• His own racing highlights — including the ARC50 and UTMB Istria

• His celebrity pacer picks, guilty pleasures, and a game of truth or lie

This week on Trails, Tales, and Fails, we sit down with one of the most consistent and inspiring forces in the ultra world — Andy Glaze. A full-time firefighter, father, and ultra runner, Andy has racked up over 250 consecutive weeks of 100+ mile training — and he's still smiling.

We dive into his epic Arizona 300 adventure, how he manages sleep deprivation, why kindness beats trolls, and the real mental tools that keep him moving through five-day races and daily chaos. From hallucinations and guilty pleasures to social media noise and the secret to sore feet recovery, Andy discusses it with honesty, humour, and heart.

Plus: celebrity pacer, guilty pleasures, fails, quickfire round, and the ultimate advice he’d give his younger self before his first ultra. Whether you’re chasing your first ultra or your first 100-mile week, this episode is packed with the grit, laughs, and real talk you need.

🎧 Grab your running shoes — and maybe some tape for your feet — and join us for a wild ride with Andy Glaze.

In this episode of Trails, Tales, and Fails, we sit down with the ultra-running legend who became the first UK athlete to complete the Triple Crown of 200s in 2023 — and now he’s crushed the 304-mile Arizona 300, finishing 9th in just over 101 hours.

We dive deep into why Scott got into ultra running, and the highs, lows, hallucinations, and heatstroke of his epic races — plus what drives him to keep taking on the biggest, baddest ultras on the calendar. Expect tales of pain and a lot of grit.

CELEB PACER: Who would Scott choose to run a scorching desert leg with him? His answer might surprise you.

TRUTH OR LIE: Scott hits us with two outrageous statements — can we figure out what’s real and what’s pure ultra fiction?

QUICKFIRE ROUND: Hallucinations, dream races, go-to snacks, and why he might just choose cold weather over hot.

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to run through day and night for four days straight — this one’s for you. Buckle up.
